Tampa Bay linebacker Mason Foster did not practice Wednesday. He is still getting tested and being observed for a concussion suffered in Sunday’s game against Atlanta.

Cornerback Johnthan Banks was limited in practice Wednesday with a shoulder injury. Coach Greg Schiano said it’s getting better. By Friday, we should know if Banks will be able to play against Detroit on Sunday.

Megatron Visits Revis Island

Tampa Bay’s game Sunday against Detroit will feature two of the best at their positions — Detroit wide receiver Calvin Johnson, aka, Megatron — and Tampa Bay cornerback Darrelle Revis, aka, Revis Island.

Both have respect for each other.

“He does a good job of playing the ball,” Johnson said. “He’s one of those corners who gets his head around to locate the ball real well. That’s something that a lot of corners don’t have. That’s what makes him so good.”

Revis returned the compliment.

“He’s one of the best in the league,” Revis said. “He’s the best. I’d say he’s the best receiver in the league.”

The director and producers of the movie Transformers should come and get some clips of this matchup. It’s sure to be fun.

Tandy to Take Over for Goldson

With safety Dashon Goldson suspended for the Detroit game, that means second-year safety Keith Tandy will take his place in the starting lineup.

Tandy has played in all 10 games and started at free safety when Goldson missed two games earlier this year. He has 18 tackles, one interception and one pass breakup.

“Keith is a leader,” he said. “He’s a leader in that (2012) class. He’s a very smart football player. We have all the concfidence in the world that he’ll step up like he did in the past and play well.”
